Los Angeles-based artist SE Barnet makes films, videos, installations and new media works that play with the discrepancy between the actual and the expected. Her internationally exhibited work focuses on process, incorporating an approach that often embraces error and incongruity. She is engaged in exploring the interrelationship between technology and the construction of identity. Barnet's work has been exhibited at The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, The American Academy in Rome, Galerie Christine Koenig in Vienna, in de een minuten as part of the Sandberg Instituut and Nederlands Instituut voor Media Kunst Montevideo, and at the Gazon Rouge Gallery in Athens. She has also contributed illustrations and writing to three projects published by Verse Chorus Press. Her work has been included in Art in America, Art Forum, and Art Papers, as well as Horizon Zero, the on-line Banff new media journal <www.horizonzero.ca>, with an essay by Sylvie Parent, the Green Museum <moisture.greenmuseum.org/> and Media@terra microMuseum. Barnet has received various grants and awards, including a Durfee ARC grant, the Long Beach Museum of Art's 1999 New Vision's Video Production Grant, the Panavision Young Filmmakers Award and, as part of the MOISTURE collective, a LEF Arts Foundation grant and a Beall Center for the Arts grant. Barnet heads the video department for Fine Arts at Otis College of Art and Design, where she is an associate professor.
